Big Data, Extracting Insights, Comprehension, and Analytics in Cardiology: An Overview

Healthcare system facilitates the treatment of patients with the support of wearable, smart, and handheld devices, as well as many other devices. These devices are producing a huge bulk of data that need to be moulded for extracting meaningful insights from them for the useful use of researchers and practitioners. Various approaches, methods, and tools are in use for doing so and to extract meaningful information in the field of healthcare. This information is being used as evidence to further analyze the data for the early care of patient and to devise treatment. Early care and treatment can facilitate healthcare and the treatment of the patient and can have immense potentiality of dropping the care cost and quality refining of care and can decrease waste and chances of error. To facilitate healthcare in general and cardiology in specific, the proposed study presents an overview of the available literature associated with big data, its insights, and analytics. The presented report will help practitioners and researchers to devise new solutions for early care in healthcare and in cardiology.
